Letocetum is a Roman auxiliary fort and associated vicus settlement located near Wall in Staffordshire, England, dating to the first and second centuries AD. The site was established as a military installation along Watling Street, serving as an important garrison point for the Roman occupation of Britain. Substantial archaeological evidence, including stone structures, pottery, and inscriptions, indicates the fort housed auxiliary troops and facilitated trade and military communication across the province. The remains, now preserved as an archaeological monument, provide significant insight into Roman military organisation and settlement patterns in the Midlands region during the imperial period.
